Thank you so much. This really resonates with me! My husband and I are kind of in that 'in between place'. We observe the absolute letter from the written Torah, but the oral torah we have issues with, like a woman wearing a covering after she's married, etc. Rabinical commands vs. God's commands are a constant debate in our house. Many would consider us very 'Frum' from the outside looking in, but other Rabbis on closer inspection would say we are not, so it's a strange place to be and always makes us feel like an outsider, because we're more orthodox than reform/conservative, but not 'fum' enough to be orthodox.
I was brought up in church before finding out about my dna and ancestral path. I don't do pagan anymore. My whole family left church to embrace our forefathers and follow true torah
I understand what you mean. When someone says "frum" they usually mean 'shomer shabbat' and keeping basic rituals. The person could still be wicked or speak lashon harah or possess horrible midot.
Frum has specific implications. This gentleman seems to assume inappropriately that frum means close to G-d and then seeks to disprove his misunderstanding. Frum has the connotation only of observing mitzvot bain Odom l'mokom
Frum means 'pious'. Pious means 'Godly'. We understand it has sociological connotations now but should they be the words we use for that, given their literal meaning...?
Frum just means someone keeps three things: Shabbat, Kashrut, amd Taharat HaMishpacha. It is relevant when dealing with various religious functions, amd especially when it comes to non-mevushal wine
Yes but should that be the term we use to describe such a person? It means 'pious' or 'Godly' - but God cares just as much about bein adam lechavero, furthermore someone could keep the letter of the law on bein adam l'mokom but do it without any kavana or connection.

'Hate' is a very strong word.
Just trying to get people’s attention 😉
Yiddish saying: "א גאלאך איז פרום. א ייד איז ערלעך." - A Christian priest is Frum. A Jew is Erlech (upright).
Simple frum means someone who keeps the Bein Adam L'mokom

@@JTVGlobalJewishChannel Right, but we want a term what we can use to describe someone although it doesn't give the whole picture.
@@JTVGlobalJewishChannel btw I am not arguing with the points you made in the video. Those are true and powerful.
